Deerfield Beach Intersection Accidents

Injuries Common in Intersection Accidents

Many intersection traffic accidents in Deerfield Beach and South Florida are T-bone accidents, rear end shunt collisions, chain reaction accidents, or other serious crashes. As a result, these types of collisions tend to result in serious injuries, such as:

Paralysis

Brain injury

Soft tissue injury

Spinal cord injury

Fractures

Amputation

Even if you have car insurance, getting compensation for these injuries can be a challenge. In some cases, insurance companies will undervalue a claim or will treat an injury such as whiplash as a minor problem, even though to patients with this condition it can be extremely painful. Whiplash and other injuries can make it difficult return to work and everyday activities and in many cases these injuries are difficult to diagnose, leading to a lot of frustration and repeat doctors’ visits. Do not let anyone tell you that your injuries do not count; speak to a personal injury attorney to find out whether you have a claim or other legal options.

Statistics Show that Intersection Accidents Can Happen to Anyone

According to the Driving Institute of America, more than 40% of traffic accident deaths involved accidents where someone drove through traffic light, stop sign, or failed to yield right-of-way. This means that a significant portion of all car accidents across the country are in fact intersection accidents.

To the attorneys at Flaxman Law Group, it's no mystery – with the number of cars, bicyclists, and pedestrians at most intersections all going separate ways in different directions at the same time, intersections mean a high risk of accidents, especially where one or more drivers drive recklessly or negligently. The attorneys of Flaxman Law Group have seen many instances where someone has suffered a devastating loss or catastrophic injury due to someone's negligence or recklessness. The good news is that in some of these cases it is possible to seek compensation so that the survivor or survivors at least have the financial compensation to pay for medical costs, property damage, and other expenses.
